Welcome to The Law Office of barbara findlay, Q.C.

I am a queer feminist lawyer committed to making the law work for all of us. For me, this means everything from helping someone prepare their will, to fighting ground breaking equality rights cases, to drafting conception agreements for couples planning a child by assisted insemination.

It also means grassroots advocacy and legal education: knowledge is power. On my website you'll find news about legal developments affecting gay, lesbians, bisexual and transgender people; how to find the free Out/Law series of legal information pamphlets available through my office, articles discussing legal issues affecting LGBT communities, a description of the services I provide, and how to contact me.
